US embassy cable - 05AMMAN9472

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

(C) In the absence of the Foreign Minister who is traveling 
outside Jordan with King Abdullah, DCM contacted Dimai 
Haddad, director of the Foreign Minister's private office, to 
deliver Ref A points.  DCM thanked Haddad for Jordan's 
support for the adoption of the Third Additional Protocol, 
advised him of current intransigence by some countries in 
Geneva blocking consensus, and urged the GOJ to vote in favor 
of the Protocol if the matter is brought to a vote.  Haddad 
replied that Jordan had not changed its position or approach 
in favor of the Protocol (Refs B and C), and that he would 
contact the Jordanian delegation in Geneva to get an update 
on the talks.  He also asked that the U.S. Mission in Geneva 
continue its close contact with the Jordanians there on this 
issue.
